Key Challenges

Upon our initial assessment, these were the key issues that needed to be addressed to help them better scale customer acquisition: 

1

High CAC On Google Ads

Previous approach to Google Ads was resulting in a CAC that was unprofitable. CAC needed to improve dramatically to progress at a healthy growth trajectory as they headed into another round of funding.

2

Slow Cash Collection Cycle

Since Cognito Health is a subscription-based service they lose money on their initial customer acquisition & replenish this investment of the next 6+ months. Reducing the CAC would enable them to grow faster by collecting cash more efficiently for reinvestment.

3

CEO's Time Was Stretch Thin

The CEO was also the one managing the Google Ads Campaign. By hiring us as the experts to manage the ads, Cognito could buy back time & increase their results.

Key Solutions

To address these challenges, our team implemented a strategy that involved the following key initiatives:

1

Google Campaign Optimization

Conducted in-depth keyword analysis to identify and focus on the most effective terms related to specific mental health conditions. Increased segmentation within the campaigns, ad groups, and ads to provide more relevance for specific search queries. The result was a higher click-through rate & more conversions for cheaper.

2

Post-Click Landing Pages

Since Cognito Health is a subscription-based service they lose money on their initial customer acquisition & replenish this investment of the next 6+ months. Reducing the CAC would enable them to grow faster by collecting cash more efficiently for reinvestment.

3

Cut Weak Performers & Scaled Top Offers

The CEO was also the one managing the Google Ads Campaign. By hiring us as the experts to manage the ads, Cognito could buy back time & increase their results.
